Shares

Quoting residents and sources in coalition forces, Reuters news agency said the alliance, led in the Hodeidah assault by the United Arab Emirates, is attempting to capture the airport in the well-defended city and push the Houthis out of their sole Red Sea port, in the biggest battle of the war.

However, the Houthi movement put up stiff resistance today to keep the Saudi-led coalition from taking full control of the airport.
